Gucci Mane Explains Ice Cream Cone Face Tattoo

After a few return trips to jail, a reported stint in both rehab and a mental institution, rapper Gucci Mane appears to be back on the straight and narrow, focused on keeping his career in order.

In the past few months, the Atlanta MC has exhibited some less than savory behavior, culminating with tattooing a large ice cream cone on the side of his face. However, Gucci wants the public to know that he is of sound mind, and feels that his ink was a good decision. "Everybody wants to know why I got the tattoo, did it hurt, what it means," he told Billboard. "I just tell them it's my trademark. It represents being the coldest in the game."

While behind bars, Gucci noted that keeping his mind on music helped him maintain his sanity. With his prison days behind him, hopefully for good, the 31-year-old used the recording of his recently released project, 'Return of Mr. Zone 6,' as a form of therapy.

"The past few months are in this album," he explained. "I work through my problems, I work through my pain. So when I was going through all the things I was going through, in the courts and all kinds of ... I just stayed in the studio. It definitely helped me."

Next up, Gucci plans to drop a joint album with longtime friend and fellow Brick Squad member, Waka Flocka Flame, titled 'The Ferrari Boys.' Between the two of them, the southern rappers have failed to push millions of units, but have maintained a steady fan base strengthened by their signature sounds and a handful of respective hit singles.

"This album is gonna be the hardest album of the year," Gucci proclaimed.

As previously reported, the duo are also pitching a reality show while Gucci is dabbling into acting, co-starring in the new film 'Get Money,' alongside Master P.

Take out the ice cream, turn the cone upside down and there you have it...dunce hat. Or, wait until he is bleeding on the side walk and stand behind his head. That is the stupidest tat I have ever seen. He thinks he is the "coldest"? The only way he is going to be the coldest is when his dumb ass is in the morgue.Maybe he can also explain why he calls himself Gucci Mane. I get the Gucci part but for all you people that don't know "mane" is the hair on a hoses neck.I am assuming he thinks it is a cool way to spell man. Then again maybe he is just some uneducated idiot that can't spell.

Scott your parents never loved you. that could be the only explanation for why they would so grossly mis-educate you on racial sensitivity. well it will be my pride and joy to informed friend (coughs)And update you to modern times with an age old story...because sometimes little pasty inbred dog f@%king gingers like you deserve to be nurtured through the kind teachings of a stranger...words like jig and colored don't fly anymore unless you were the unfortunate offspring of the bitter post civil war southern state generation. remember the next black person you see be sure to give him a hearty ole hand shake with a genuine smile and know that somewhere down the line somebody in your family was plowed in bed by one...The End

So he explains it. He will be 'splaining' it for the rest of his life. Does anyone really think that when they reach middle and old age, they will have anything memorial to humm, sing, or remember, or will they be stuck with a monotonist, little childs' lousy rhymes? The tattoos will long since have melted into a lot of bruise smears and the mirror will be a chore. Hey kid, what's wrong with uncle ugly?

Lol...when he gets old the ice cream will be melting. Then his grand kids are going to want to know why he has a melting ice cream cone on hie face. Guess he wont be the "coldest" then. Stupid ass should have thought about what that ice cream is going to look like when he gets old (if he lives that long) and has a shit load of wrinkles.

WOW, you can say that again. From looking at your face it seems like you could kill babies with no remorse.
